[Firehol-devs] [Firehol-support] FireHOL to be released

[Costa Tsaousis]

Hi Jeff,

I have not tested 2.6.20+ in Gentoo with FireHOL.
Since FireHOL has been designed to complain about kernel modules, I
would like to find out what changed and how to overcome the issue.

I will do it now and come back to you.

Costa
